First Tuesday in August
Yep, we don't usually have much humidity. but it is still hot. I wish we would get another good rain to cool things down a little. In the spring and fall humidity is about 5% but in the summer and winter rains we do get up to 50%, Of course we think we are dying. lol
Then the rains come and cool things off. Haven't had any rain for about a week Mag

Aww poor Baxter. . .
As for your "Bariatric Bad Girl" sounds like she is trying to prove that RNY is not the solution for her. . . too bad she had a "bad attitude", as ultimately she will pay a heavy price. ..

My Mantra is that I do not determine my success by the number hanging in my closet, nor will I let the scale determine that success either. . . It is through trial and error I will continue to grow and succeed. . . Laureen

Baxter will be fine. Tom might need a tranquilizer though.
The Bariatric Bad Girl has paid once for eating around her band. She convince the surgeon that she was compliant and the band failed, causing regain.
She is in the RNY honeymoon period and losing. We all know it is going to stop being effective. Yes, this is going to fail too. Very sad.

lol, yes Tom will sympathize with Baxter (lol). . .
It is sad that your bad girl is setting herself to fail, I have a few folks in my support group that test things, one gal last month admitted to the fact that she has never been compliant with her vitamins and is eating things she knows she shouldn't, said she has just been too busy with school and whatnot, she is a young gal in her 20s, sometimes I think they are the toughest ones, because it seems then think time is on their side and they can get away with things. She said her last bloodwork showed no signs of her being anything more than anemic. . . I just don't know, we do have a nutritionist on hand, so I believe the NUT spoke with her. . .
Good luck today, with Tom, hope he survives Baxter's neutering (lol)

Good morning everyone,
I feel like I'm in a walking nightmare this morning with my trauma/drama daughter. I could use a little prayer support today. Was up half the night on the phone with her, with her boyfriend, with HIS mother--it was awful and non-productive. I mean, what the hell can I do about the situation, I'm 300 miles away. Last phone call was around 2 a.m. I'm exhausted this morning and I have a headache.
Anyway, I fully expect my daughter and Benny to "move home" today. I just don't know how all of this is going to work out. I'm okay with them coming here for a visit. I think it would be good for Christie and John to take a break from one another and let things settle down. But if she wants to live here full time, that's another scenario completely, and I just don't know how I feel about that one. Chris and I do not get along together very well on a day-to-day basis. I'm not sure we can share a house again. The last time we tried (about 5 years ago), it was a disaster. Only now there's a baby to be considered. It's very complicated.
On top of that, my downstairs AC went out last night! I was up and calling the AC company at 7:30 a.m., but they can't promise me that they'll get to me today. Great. Just great. At least the upstairs unit is still working.
So, I need to shake a leg here. Need to hop in the shower and be dressed, just in case the AC guy shows up here early. If Benny is coming, I need to clean house and baby proof. And get to the store, only I can't leave until the AC guy comes today, IF he comes today.
Thank goodness my DH will be home on Thursday. This is a situation that will require both of us, I'm afraid. Sometimes Chris will listen to her dad when she won't listen to anyone else. And of course, we'll get to see Benny. Always a silver lining, no matter how small, huh?
Love you all!

Vickie.....sorry you had such a rough night last night. I can relate as I have gone through this with my daughter and oldest granddaughter. Many sleepless nights!!!!!
Keeping you and your family in my prayers.
As for the A/C....sure hope they get there soon....not a good time to be without A/C. I am sure those companies are very busy. With every one running A/C constantly I am sure plenty of others are having trouble too. Good Luck!!
Love and hugs.....connie d

Vickie,
I am so sorry that you are going through such a difficult time with your daughter. I belong to a 12 step program and working the steps really helped me a lot. Also as I gotten more mature (like in my 40's) I've been able to see myself sliding and get help. It helps me so much but especially my sis helps by telling me what I'm doing that concerns her. I guess what I'm saying is there is hope for the future. I know that isn't help now. I feel your pain. Tough decisions ahead for you and your DH. Hugs Mag
